"Smart and Haldane are both remarkable philosophers. Each in his
own way possesses the rare combination of formidable dialectical
skills, an original vision for philosophy, and immense personal
integrity ... I do not see how anyone could read this book and not
feel that it represents the finest kind of intellectual encounter
..."Hilary Putnam, Harvard University <!--end-->

"Philosophers of both theistic and atheistic persuasions will
find this important new debate on theism particularly interesting
for themselves and for their students. Haldane an Smart show that
the dispute over the existence of God is very much alive among the
best philosophers at the end of the twentieth century." Linda
Zagzebski, University of Oklahoma

"This book show contemporary academic philosophy at its best."
